This has become totally stable and a completely indispensable addition to Safari. Works beautifully and receives frequent updates. The only two things I would like to see enhanced are:

1) Better whitelisting of subdomain cookies.

2) The option to clear flash cookies is awesome, but it could use a whitelisting feature. I'm not sure if this is even possible, but it would be a huge convenience. I have apps that store their settings in the same place as flash cookies and those program's preferences get cleared (even when i've set them to "always allow") when I quit my browser. An annoyance, but not yet enough of one to keep me from using this great plugin. (Yes, I know I could turn the feature off, but I'm stubborn. hehe)

Otherwise, I'm loving this. For me, it's Safari's missing golden feature.

Looking forward to seeing this become more stable, but it seems to get the job done. Been looking for a way to white-list cookies in Safari for a long time (probably the browser's biggest weakness), so I'm very glad to see this come along.
